Auto Club Dragway Jack Beckman

The NHRA’s 2012 World Champion Funny Car driver, “Fast” Jack Beckman, was among several racing dignitaries who were on hand at Auto Club Dragway’s Open House. Jack cut his teeth in drag racing at many of Southern California’s drag strips (most notably, Los Angeles County Raceway in Palmdale, which closed in 2007), and expressed his sincere happiness about the reopening of SoCal’s quarter-mile race track.
